1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

The YouTube link is right there...and I can confirm it happened live on the ktvu 2 news. Almost died laughing..then a day later there was a quick apology.

 

How does stuff like that get by

 

The crash happened at San Francisco International Airport back in the summer of 2013, I want to say July. Dad always likes to watch the news and I happened to be around when they read this. This is KTVU 2, one my local news stations.

 

Apparently an NTSB employee did actually give them these names.

That employee was an intern.

 

Key word : was

 

The shit KTVU got after that newscast was uncanny. Everyone was talking about it for the next week or two.

I don’t understand how it got through so many people and no one read it out loud until it got to the Teleprompter.

 

More Z parts... Fuel filter (all metal rather than the half plastic one all the cheapo manufacturers use), plug wires, coolant hoses, and hood struts

 

3/10 Fake Carbon Fiber

 

Really reminds me of an RV for some reason.

 

Did anyone else know its Friday?

I’ve been without responsibilities for too long. Good thing school starts again Monday

 

Ktvu was rushing to get the scoop. And took everything as true, cause ntsb..lol

 

I was thinking tranatlantic sleeper flight or Japanese bullet train on a budget

 

It's Sunday for me. Work week starts tomorrow at 0330.

 

I’ve seen his van. It looks like an episode of Hoarding: Buried Alive on TLC.

 

So that's after he cleaned it

 

The whole thing is a poobox

I wanted to organize it so badly.

 

What is this “clean” you speak of?

It’s a neat van. Lots of storage and functionality. Pretty barebones though, I was shocked to hear it wasn’t that old. Think 2012 model year? Had sealed beam headlights and crank windows.

 

Why is that shocking, you could go to your local Chevy fleet dealer and pickup a 2019 model like that in either pickup or van flavor

 

Is that a Ford Transit or a Promaster? Either way they must not like you haha

 

Oh okay the NV are actually pretty nice, they actually give you an engine worth a damn
